I'm 19 years old and I have severe pain in almost all of my joints. It usually hurts the most in the morning, at night when I try to sleep, or when I rest for a while.

Could it be arthritis?

I also have no medical insurance to see a doctor.
What do you think I should do?

Hi please tell me things on how to cure or help a strep throat.
I am 10 years old, not in leap years.
just say it in your own methods because i can try to understand,
and I'm gifted so ill know at least some main things.
But please just make it a little easier so a 5th grader can understand.

I have fibromyalgia and driving causes me a lot of pain, but my job requires a lot of driving. I can't seem to find a good car seat cushion to help. All the ergonomic (sp?) cushions seem to be for your back, not your butt, which is where my pain is. Any ideas? I'm already using support gloves for my hands and wrists so it doesn't hurt so much to keep my hands on the steering wheel, but my hip joints keep locking up.

About a week ago, my knees felt like that locked up during "activities" with my hubby, and I since have not done anything like that, but yesterday my knee on my left side started hurting, and today i woke up with it aching so bad it hurts to bend it at all, if I sit down I literally cannot lift my knee upwards, stairs are really excruciating, and now the pain in radiating up into my thigh and my hip hurts! Whats the deal? Any ideas? Should I go to the doc? Ice or Heat?

Im 14 and i have upper back pain at moments but they go awya when i move around and when i drink water, but when i don't move or sit the pain comes back. the pain is mild, i do tend to slouch in my chair and i think i have a bad posture. The pain feels weird and i don't want to go to the doctor unless i have too.

I also get pain sometimes in my lower left back side, but it goes away when i drink water or eat a lot. the pain goes away also when i laugh or have a good time. Wierd right?

The other thing is that i got pain this morning in my pelvic area on the left and it hurt like a b****! When i got up to urinate and release the demon i felt a little better. I passed gas in the morning a lot and the pain is gone. It comes back a couple time. I do tend to hold it when i have to go because the teacher doesn't let me go.

I've gone to the doctor and they say im fine that they can't find nothing wrong with me. Maybe because im lazy idk. I would apprecitate the help thanks.

Does any one know of anything other than exersize, glucosamine, chondroitin, yucca and msm (I do all of these things) that help with joint function and pain manigment? I have heard of avacados and soy helping. Has anyone else heard of this? Thanks in advance.

I have been struggling with an SI disorder and a serious arthritis problem in my right hip. So much so that I can't be on my feet longer than 10 minutes at a time. Walking is almost impossible. I also have pain on the left side of my right shin so I believe it must be some sort of an alignment problem. I have no pain when I am off the hip or when I sleep unless I have been on my feet too much during the day. The left side of my back, my hip and my leg have no pain. I saw an orthopedist who said I could have my hip replaced, but I was pretty young, I could have injections. But it seems to me that fixing the hip, isnt necessarily going to fix the back or the shin. What kind of medical professional has the knowledge to help me with this problem in its entireity?

I am 55 and quite healthy but my knees hurt, do not work very well and are weak. For instance, I dare not squat down because I would never be able to get up. I don't know what it is. I never have any swelling, redness, or heat. I do not fit the profile of arthritis, as far as I know. Any suggestions? And would exercising my knees make them stronger or just wear them out quicker?

What are some good ways to ease arthritis pain? I don't want to take any prescription medications and moving to a warmer climate isn't an option ~ at least not yet :-) Some facts about me: I am 26, try to exercise daily, and eat very, very healthy. Please help...I am in a lot of pain!

I also recently got hit in the hard from point blank range when I played soccer this morning. Immediately afterwards, my head started aching and my neck still tingles whenever I turn my neck in slow motion.

Is there any medicine or anything I should do prevent me from me dying due to a brain tumor excessive whiplash(damage to the brain)?

Ok, extensive blood work in. Everything ok except chloresterol 210. Urinealysis ok. Kidney x rays ok.
Doctor placed this 50 year old man on tremador and vicon for pain in lower back right side. I have this pain for 3 weeks now and no let up in sight.
What should I do next or what might it be? Pain pills give me relief, but underlying pain still there.
I have never been to a chiorpractor in my life> Is this an option? Thanks. Any comments appreciated.
